  1. What'd we think of the finale? 

     

    Spoiler

    Pros: I was fine with Rue's trajectory and the bit of closure she got this episode, along with Lexi. I was also cool with the message behind Rue finally being easy on herself for losing her dad. Cassie got what was coming, but still leaving the season with zero redeeming qualities (non-physical). 

    Cons: Sucks that they introduced the $10k into the season and decided to do nothing with it. Why introduce it halfway through the season and just table it? The Fez/Ashtray scene was a pretty shitty action sequence, imo. I was almost as annoyed by it as I was watching Elliott sing for 3 minutes unimpeded to a girl he did drugs with for a month. I thought somewhere after the 2nd verse they would place a QR code to the dude's spotify page in the corner. Wtf. 

     

  2. They told me Cincy would be tough this year.... Fun season opener to experience in person. That counter attack is something to witness... #Listos 

     

  3. Just caught up. Didn't hate the episode, I get the point of it, but the premise of the play was stupid. "My life, and you all know the characters so let me spill all their secrets before you seen them at 8:30 in homeroom tomorrow!" Fuck outta here. With a ridiculous budget. 

    I hated that they showed so much of big lips. She is tough to look at. I liked the timeline of Fez's day, and how he planned to be there but something happened obviously. I thought it was a good build up. 

    Lastly, fuck what y'all talkin bout:

    1. Minka Kelly. 2.Cassie. 3. Maddie. 4. Rue. 5. Lexi.

    Thats a "Burgers > Beer and whiskey > Detroit Style Pizza" East 6th crawl that won't make you stand out from the crowd too much.

     

     

    Pretty similar to my typical weekend (living on the East side). Rainey is a thing, but I hate it. Afternoons are bearable, but evenings are an overcrowded shitshow of college kids, bachelor/ette parties and tourists. Clive did just open back up a few weekends ago, after some hardcore construction (closed for a couple years), and I hear it's crawling with undergrads now, so if your friend is looking for that kinda time, you'll find it there. I have seen the sugar daddy crowd there with the 20-somethings in tow, so you might find somewhere to spend it. Banger's is still fun, imo.

    I hope my family has an intervention for me if I ever start following preseason MLS.

    Ive believed a decade of sunshine-pumping 9.95 articles about Spring Texas Football, and this year will be no different. This is light work for me.

    I am expecting that her sponsor guy comes to save her eventually....or serve as some sort of protection from Laurie and her crazies

    I would be satisfied, but I can also see Fez getting involved.

  7. Most active we've ever been. And I'm not really mad at any of the moves. Got the capital we want, but sad to see Derrick White go. He was my favorite of the new class, but it was evident he's hit a wall here and likely not going to be that player from the Denver series years ago. Could be a good 3rd/4th option in Boston though. 

    Let's get us a real good bounce of the lottery balls and start cooking with gas.....

  8. Lost to Toronto FC today 2-1. Notes from twitter say Romana gave up an early penalty in the first 10 mins or so, Urruti equaled. Not sure how much better we'll be but I'd be satisfied with mid-table this year. At least in the conference.

    I want to make babies with Carrie Coon. That's all I have to say.

     

    Line starts back there, pal. 

     

    Been happy to see Kevin's daughter starting to become a bit of a star, as well as Evie Murphy, who was a central character in the new Scream movie, and I've also seen a couple other places.

    You guys have gone beyond comedic now trying to act like there's no reason in the world that Tech fans should have any animosity toward Beard. "How dare they speak ill of UT and Beard...don't they know we are superior to them and they should thank us for taking their coach?"  LOL.   I'm willing to bet the majority of you still haven't gotten over some girl who broke up with you in jr high/high school/college.  

    If you were being completely honest with yourselves, deep down you wish your student fanbase had even a tenth of the passion that the Tech students are displaying now.

     

    There it is. On the twitter posts about the team arriving in Lubbock last night, the comments were FULL of red raiders parroting the lines, like they're rehearsed. I can just hear every shitty diner in Lubbock "He can kiss my ass! They don't even go to games in Austin, they're too busy going to their antifa marches!" Every single post had at least 2-3 comments about how the Longhorns are reveling in the hate because "they're just happy to have fans"..... Like we just fucking sold out the Erwin Center 3 days ago. At 10% more capacity than Tech's home floor. Gtfoh. Between the basketball game or attending the 3rd different frat house backyard bonfire in the beginning of the semester, I get it, the Raiders would choose to go to the game.

  11. Wish I did a S1 rewatch before this. I had a lot of feeling towards characters that I can't even remember what they're based on. Like Maddie is one of the chillest characters this season, and is shown multiple times being a good friend, but Cassie is still terrified that she will literally beat the shit out of her if she finds out (both can be true I guess). I remember hating her and her drama last season. 

    Also not seeing how Rue survives this season. She's pretty damn far gone. For some reason I didn't peg Elliot as just another addict, but when he "confessed" to Jules that Rue was relapsing, I viewed him in the same light. He talks deep and is open (or conniving), but he's also an addict.

    What do you know about this guy and the transfer rumors?

    We got him. Hope he's starting quality and raises the floor of the CB group.

  13. Checking into thread. Was at the Austin show at Stubb's, where Leon Bridges also played and I was there too. Very happy to see they have another EP together on the way. Leon's smooth voice goes very well with their sound. 

    Oh, and definitely dig that they're both from Texas and seem to rep the hell out of that every time they can.

  14. I want to see Cascante replaced. Romana is a youngster, he can improve. Idk about all the head-scratching attacking moments he tries out, but he plays hard more often than not. I think we can do better at RB too, but those guys are serviceable. Just not difference-makers. I'm excited about our coming attack though. Could be fun .
